Lake Powell is hitting dangerously low levels. If water drops too far, the hydroelectric plant would shutdown, and energy costs in Arizona could spike for millions, especially rural communities. We need leaders who are going to step up and hit the negotiating table for our precious water rights.

My meeting with the Ak-Chin Indian Community was a great opportunity to discuss the importance of tribal representation in our nation's politics. In Washington, I'll work alongside Native communities to ensure their voices are heard and they have access to the resources they deserve.

Proposed cuts to Arizona’s Colorado River water are devastating. I’ll fight to protect our water rights, invest in modernizing aging water infrastructure, and stand with the farmers, ranchers, and communities that depend on every drop. Arizona deserves better.

The U.S. government proposes deep cuts to water supply for Arizona, California and Nevada during dry years in a new plan to operate the drought-stricken Colorado River.

The Arctic Circle just reached a temperature that once seemed almost impossible for such a frozen region: above 100°F, or 38°C … a shocking first … fragile regions are rapidly changing. Sometimes one number can tell a much bigger story … climate change is no longer distant. It’s here. It’s now.

It was an honor to speak at the annual Navajo Housing Authority Service Awards. Housing is not a partisan issue. We need to invest in housing organizations and expand access to safe housing for all Arizonans. I will continue supporting commonsense solutions. Congratulations to those awarded tonight!

It was inspiring to see the people of Kearny, AZ, come together to support their neighbors at a donation drive today. While Washington cuts healthcare and vital programs, communities like this are stepping up. In Congress, I'll fight to ensure rural communities get the support they deserve.

I visited the F.O.R. Maricopa Food Center today to learn about food insecurity and lend a helping hand. I'm grateful for their vital work. Programs like SNAP aren't handouts — they're hand-UPs helping families put food on the table. In Congress, I'll fight to reverse harmful cuts to these programs.

Another day, another packed house full of hardworking individuals. Today, I spoke in front of Navajo students honored with the Chief Manuelito Scholarship. This prestigious scholarship helps support their journey to colleges and universities. I couldn't be more proud of their achievement.

Today, Phefelia and I had the opportunity to speak with young voters about their concerns with today’s political climate. Their perspectives were thoughtful, informed, and deserve to be heard. It’s essential that our elected officials ensure young voices help shape policies that impact their future.

Kearny, Arizona, is an example of the water crunch facing communities across the West as states and cities stare down a future of “megadrought” and fight over scarce resources. Other cities around the West could face similar challenges and cutbacks.

A desert town may run out of water. Others could face the same fate.

An Arizona community nearly dried up and imposed strict limits, and its crisis may be a glimpse of the West’s future.

canvassed in northern az today. Hugh humidity and now in bed with heat exhaustion. It was insightful, folks are stunned when asked what are your top issues. Ages 19-70 yo voters. All were truly having a hard time stating just one or two top issues.

Last night, I spent time speaking with Latino voters about their concerns and hopes for this year’s midterm election. This campaign season, we are strengthening connections with Arizona voters!
